"Complete informatization, no, it's more like a change in information displayed through the blade."

In a daze, the senior engineer felt as if he had become a red meteorite with a diameter of 2k, floating in a cosmic environment called Star Abyss. The living environment here was extremely complex, with energy tides erupting at any time, molecular clouds sweeping in every now and then, and gravitational waves often sweeping across the entire area.

In this environment, the meteorite could only continuously compress its volume to make its body more robust in order to withstand this hellish environment.

Compression alone is not enough; it has begun to learn to devour information with similar properties to itself from this chaotic information, such as some free silicon and iron elements, to strengthen itself.

And that is the origin of the "Crimson Domain".

The control and consumption of information.

The senior engineer's eyes suddenly lit up with a bright red light. He seemed to "see" a square, mid-level combat chip on the spine of these robots.

The next moment, the data processed by the chip was directly sucked into this red area.

Click, click, click

To outsiders, the blade flashed red for a moment, and then thick smoke billowed from the ten robots. They swayed a few times and collapsed on the spot.

The familiar notification sound rang ten times in a row.

"Change to a different batch."

Soon, another batch of training robots was also sent up.

The senior engineer adopted the classic sword-drawing stance, but this time it wasn't the sonic slash that relied on speed. As the red light gradually brightened, the slender blade suddenly began to slowly disappear.

A red scratch appeared on the waist of the training robot.

With a casual wave of his hand, the robot with tens of thousands of health points was instantly split in two.

"The blade first marks the target, transforming from a solid state to an information state. Once it transforms from an information state to a solid state, it directly destroys the enemy's body structure."

According to the senior engineer, the greatest advantage of this move is not its lethality, but its ability to completely destroy the body's structure. If used well, it can even keep the enemy in a state of being interrupted most of the time.

"The Fall of the Stars"

This move is a series of consecutive sword techniques. When it is used, it is as if a star is falling into an abyss. With each layer it descends, the darkness deepens until the abyss completely swallows the star.

Scarlet Star Rain

When this move was unleashed, it was as if hundreds of meteors were falling from the sky. This move was not only the most lethal, but also the most energy-consuming. The senior engineer only had time to think about it for a moment before the blade began to soften again.

"If it were a martial god with an implanted combat chip, then the auxiliary chip should be used to collect weapon data."

Fortunately, I have a biocomputer that works even better than a chip.

After dragging the four sword techniques into the system, a large amount of data was quickly refreshed.

Version 0 G system features:

Improve and optimize skill attributes, and even break through the skill level cap.

"It's a pity that this thing can only continuously optimize skill data in 'Man and Sword as One' mode."

However, looking at the limp blade, Gao Gong had a sudden thought: this thing could probably be used to make a belt.

Under the watchful eyes of several martial arts masters, this "anal monkey" seemed to have only practiced his swordsmanship briefly before leaning against the wall and entering a resting mode, forming a stark contrast with the "fat pig" sweating profusely next to him.

Although on the surface, Gao is slacking off.

But even while slacking off, the senior engineer was still keeping an eye on the various panels. With the panels on, it was easy to see the situation of his own people.

Du Zhaodi to say, after transforming into a ship girl, Director Du entered a super production mode, manufacturing one mech after another, seemingly determined to build a "million-mech army".

As for the rest of the camp, they were still frantically digesting the spoils of this corporate war.

"Second-order super technology",

Second-order super technology,

Level 2 super technology

Meat processing technology

Various high-level drawings

A large number of cutting-edge basic technologies

These must be 'digested' before they can enter the development stage.

Compared to players' random gambling and random modifications, the speed is significantly slower.

The advantage is that once it is fully digested, it can be mass-produced immediately, driving the price of chips down to rock-bottom levels.

This is the biggest advantage of the faction.

The senior engineer thought for a moment and then switched the taskbar.

Both hellish missions are underway.

Gao Yuanyuan is on the path of the 'third task chain'.

Those expert hackers were so skilled that the senior engineer felt very reassured.

On the contrary, another player mission made the senior engineer a little worried.

As everyone knows, the Fourth Calamity can not only harm enemies, but also its own people—as long as you show your health bar.

Therefore, the senior engineer and the players have always maintained a somewhat distant relationship.

However, since it concerns the Collapse Entity, he is still quite concerned.

Fortunately, these players are all expert players, data-boosting enthusiasts who don't care about family ties, so the probability of them causing trouble is very low.

"Let's go take a look."

With a thought, Gao Gong used the connection between the Collapse Entity and the Honkai aura to transport his consciousness across thousands of miles to the place where the 'Purple Energy Mirror' was located.

Before the development of "spatial folding technology", players did not have "spatial bags" and good weapons had to be carried with them. His consciousness descended without alerting Baozi and his group.

The environment was dark and did not appear to be on the ground because of the numerous ventilation ducts.

"Brother Umbrella told me that yesterday the 'textile machine' malfunctioned for some reason, its perception suddenly dropped drastically," Baozi said excitedly. "I think we can move our operation forward!"

"Finally, we can do it ahead of schedule?" Sister Ji said weakly. Her body, which was originally quite lewd, had now completely transformed into that of a young girl, and she looked like she had shrunk a lot.

"Just bear with it a little longer, Sister Ji. In a top-tier faction like this, we only have one chance! Pipi, how's it going?"

Baozi then looked at the PP head connected to the brain-computer interface. Countless data scrolled down on the PP head's glasses. After about ten minutes, he pushed off the glasses, unplugged the data cable, and revealed his slightly red and swollen eyes.

"It's finally confirmed," PP leader said weakly. "Miss Dida has already figured out the optimal route for us. Now, as long as we follow her route plan, we can enter the core area of the Assassination Alliance in the safest way."

"Tick-tock," Baozi had gone to great lengths to recruit a player who followed the AI path. She was incredibly skilled, and it was thanks to her help that the group had been able to reach this point.

"Is Umbrella Bro still unable to come over?" Baozi looked at another player companion, "Student Zhang".

"I will always like Zhang Aiping," the former corporate investigator shook his head.

"Although the textile machine was severely damaged, 'Brother Umbrella' is still unable to operate in the core area of the assassination alliance. However, he said he could help us deal with the assassins' spies on the periphery."

Baozi nodded, looked around, and said in a deep voice:

"Rest for half an hour, then we'll move out!"

Half an hour later, Zhang, the corporate investigator, led the way, holding a paper lantern.

Corporate investigators are a clandestine position. Only after completing a certain number of corporate investigations can one advance to the second job advancement, which leads to the Six Departments of the Mother City.

This "paper lantern" is standard equipment for corporate investigators; it's a faction-specific tool. Once equipped, it can detect changes in an organization's data flow and break through data illusions.

The others followed cautiously, activating all their defensive gear. The assassins in this core area ranged from level 40 to level 50, and even level 60.

These assassins are extremely explosive; once they unleash their power, they can even kill you instantly.

The people present all died three times on average.

Moreover, these assassins are extremely skilled at stealth, rendering all their detection skills and pre-prepared detection equipment useless.

Fortunately, the corporate investigators' special abilities allow them to track down the killer to some extent.

We were lucky this time, or maybe the "weaving machine" really did malfunction. We didn't encounter any enemies along the way.

Soon, the four of them arrived at a wall with a large textile pattern on it. On each thread, there was a large living person. What was even more bizarre was that these living people were still moving. Some were rushing towards the spinning machine with ferocious expressions, while others were running away in another direction with joyful expressions.

Originally, these four players had no way to deal with this "door".

According to Dida, this appears to be a high-level information lock, unless you can get a corporate server and put it here to unlock it for three or four days.

However, Sister Ji gave them an unexpected surprise.

The reason is simple: Sister Ji underwent forbidden transformation, which means altering her life form.

Sister Ji didn't say the specifics of the modification process, but she did say that after the modification was completed, half of the eight systems in the human body were lost.

However, the advantage is that the upper limit of other systems has been increased from 100% to 125%.

Regardless, after undergoing the "forbidden transformation," she was tainted with some "forbidden aura," which was precisely what allowed her to "open the door."

Sister Ji reached out her hand, her palm transforming into a thread that penetrated the wall and connected to the spinning machine. Then, with a sharp tug, the spinning machine was jerked slightly.

The door that the wall had transformed into suddenly opened.

Sister Ji has become even shorter.

"If I can't get in this time, I won't even be able to keep my girl form. I'll only be able to turn into a loli. Then I won't attract handsome guys anymore, only perverts," Sister Ji said, rolling her eyes.

Let's go.

Baozi took a deep breath and led the four advanced robots in first.

Unexpectedly, there was no battle as anticipated, nor was there a dark environment. Instead, there were shattered clouds and trapped fog.

"Stop looking, this isn't the physical layer, it's the virtual layer, it was an entrance to cyberspace back then."

As they were talking, a lively young girl stepped out.
